It was a great fun! and pleasure to met all the old and new friends:) I managed to catch up with KEW11 (he's so kind, haha) like always, the cruise was packed with great views on the stops, Love it!

Big thx to Sam for organizing the amazing cruise! and thx hrd-hr30 for the great roads(except for the grids, hehe) I heard that you were driving madly in front, wish I can see that.....

:( you must be getting me confused with the other white GTR :)

but some of those tighter twisty sections can be enjoyable well within the speed limit (and the car/driver limits of course)

if you do want to see me driving madly, come along to the next hillclimb at MtCotton on Sunday 7th of May... I'll do a run or two on those street tyres just for laughs!

and there's a come and try day on the 21st if you decide you want to have a drive there yourself. Not a competition, just driving around the track as fast or slow as you are comfortable. Its a way for newbies to have a try at hillclimbing, or just for people who want to see what the track looks like from the drivers seat.

Hrd Hr30. Hahahhaa it wasnt me... it was YOU!!!! I like the way you took some of those corners.... I tried to keep up but your too good mate.

I remember one bend it was a right hand bend with the apex of the corner at the base of a hill so you had to climb up... I was going was too fast and i remember the G force my brain experienced.

They were some pretty good mountain roads. Gotta do it again!!

RYN26, its free to get into the hillclimb to watch. the practice days are fairly cheap too. I

frankxy - I've got more good roads ready and waiting for another cruise whenever everyone is ready!

arbess - yeah some of those heavily on-cambered 2nd gear corners through Kenillworth State Forest (just after that road with all the cattle grids) were very nice. They just don't make corners like that anymore! and all within the speed limit too!

me too :(

I don't think anyone fall behind thanks to RYN26 and Brad keeping us in pace with the rest of the group LOL

Thanks for the cruise guys. It was fun and a good introduction to QLD roads for me. You guys have awewome highway and interesting hillclimb road compare to SA.

I will be keen to come to Mt Cotton on the 21. If I am not ready to compete I will be keen to spectate. Hopefully catch up with you guys again.

Cheers

the 2nd Round of the Hillclimb Series on the 7th of May is the one see if you want to watch. The "Come and Try" day on the 21st is for those who want to try it out for themselves without the pressure of competition. Come and check the place out on the 7th and decide if you want to have a drive there yourself on the 21st.

Hey guys just curious, we made one stop where videos were taken of the GTRs leaving one by one...anyone has the video?

As well as all other videos taken of the cruise will be good too!

Cheers!

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
